• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Religion and Lack of Religion

    People are horrible but a person is nice. I will absolutely say "I don't like Christians". I don't. I like individual Christians well enough, but that's because I know them apart from a general understanding of what they may believe. I can say with certainty that I won't like a strict Muslim...

    Newbies/seniors?

    Yeah, it's the newer, horrendously active, members I meant. The ones who post in forum games and have like thousands of posts but who I never actually see post!

    Newbies/seniors?

    I'm just going to say: pretty much everyone here feels new, but that's also because I don't hang out in many of the forums. I bet most users are just like "who's this guy?" at me, so w/e.

    gogogooooooo!!!! I just wrote a scene where Alex punches through a prevampire's chest. She like. She's all "oh, shit, I wish I had a crossbow/stake/something" and then she's like "oh, wait, I'm basically invulnerable and super strong" so she just punches it through its chest. :D

    Alex is still a super capable fighter of supernatural beings. She's meant to be reluctant. I guess she can be both for now? ;;

    I joined at the tail-end of IF. I also rarely post, and my postcount was probably a lot higher on the last vB incarnation. Seniority doesn't mean anything, anyway! It just means we've been here a long time.

    There are two things you can do, really: push through and just write it so you're done with it, or ignore it and come back to it later. The former isn't really in the spirit of NaNo because it's going to be fairly slow going if you really don't want to write it, so what I'd suggest is that you...

    The CoD Word War - NaNoWriMo 2011

    sooooo I did it and then some more!!! I only need to write 1000 words tonight but I hope I can manage 1667 at least.

    The CoD Word War - NaNoWriMo 2011

    It's not going too badly today, and the scene after the one I'm writing is one I've been wanting to write for a little while now, so that will hopefully spur me to write lots for it. I certainly hope I can get to 10000 words by the end of the day, anyway!

    The CoD Word War - NaNoWriMo 2011

    I've been slacking. Yesterday was a complete write-off for me so I have to write 3000 words today. I'm not sure if this is even possible to be perfectly honest since I've got a ton of stuff to do before I can write, but I'm going to persevere.

    Gender

    I think you're missing something here. The parents enrolled their children into Egalia so they're obviously thinking about gender stereotyping and heteronormative socialisation, so I think it's very likely that they try and do similar things to what's done at Egalia at home. Perhaps not as...

    Political correctness

    It's probable, isn't it? I had a heteronormative childhood and I grew up gay. I guess it depends on whether you subscribe to a heavily nature-based view of sexuality or nurture-based, I guess.

    Political correctness

    I have an issue with this, too. I don't see how it's at all bad to include heterosexual couples in stories because the reality is that most of these children will grow up to be heterosexual, and just because a couple has a cisman and ciswoman doesn't mean it can't say something positive about...

    NaNoWriMo 2011

    Yeah, um, apparently my main character is having prophetic visions now. I don't even know how that happened but she had a trippy dream sequence where the sky was on fire and the grass was bleeding and then she saw the end of the world. or it was just a dream.

    I think I beat my record of having characters die. One of my main characters died on like the first page. Um. It's okay though she's still relevant!!!!!! I'm going to do more writing later because right now I'm tied up with statistics and numbers and all sorts of values for things. I hope to...
